Something extraordinary is taking shape at the Warrior StoryField
Introducing the Dragon and Phoenix: two monumental sculptures, each 20 feet tall and weighing 20 tons. For 15 years, the Warrior StoryField community has been cutting, welding, and shaping steel to bring these extraordinary creations to life.
And somewhere along the way, what began as the creation of two monumental sculptures became something far greater.
We Acquired the Land
Now we are starting the complex move of the Dragon and Phoenix to their new, 38-acre home in rural Longmont. Once complete, we can extend out mission to carry on the remarkable work that started in one artist's backyard.
Words aren't enough to convey the power of this sacred space. It's the experience of being at the StoryField when one truly "gets it": hearing the steady sizzle of the welders, locking in the hypnotic gaze from the Phoenix, and witnessing combat veterans find new ways to share difficult stories. A documentary invites many more to experience what many of us already have experienced at the StoryField.
Joining forces with Purple Mountain Pictures
Warrior StoryField and Purple Mountain Pictures operate independently. But we share something important: a belief that what is happening here matters and our individual efforts can amplify one another. Your gift to the Warrior StoryField will be divided equally between the needs of the StoryField and the Documentary film.
Your gift will help us:
Our mission is to build and create a sanctuary, a sacred environment, where veterans can share their stories of going to war, service, and the experience of coming home. To speak the unspoken, to speak the unspeakable.
Through the expression of art, the StoryField provides a bridge between the Warrior experience and the civilian community to honor those who served, those living, and their journey of returning. It is a sacred space where non-veterans can come to listen, learn, and share their journey.
